§ 3039 Lieutenant Governor Impeachment Notice

• •If the Lieutenant Governor is accused of doing something really bad (impeached), the Assembly has to tell the Senate right away.
• •The Senate then picks a new president to take over the Lieutenant Governor's job.
• •This rule was made in 1943.

Imagine the Lieutenant Governor is caught stealing money from the state.

The Assembly would tell the Senate about it immediately. The Senate would then choose a new person to be the president and do the Lieutenant Governor's job.
